Spring water exists underground in an aquifer that sits at or below the earth’s water table. This water is frequently thought of as having undergone pre-purification because it has gone through natural filters like limestone, sandstone, and clay. Compared to normal water, spring water has more dissolved minerals. Reverse osmosis, ultraviolet, ozone, and filtration are used to clean and disinfect spring water before it is packaged for consumption in bottles, pouches, plastic, and glass.
